SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of July 8, 2009 (74
FR 32571), the Consumer Product Safety Commission published a notice in
accordance with provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35) to announce the agency's intention to seek extension
of approval of the collection of information required in the Safety
Standard for Omnidirectional Citizens Band Base Station (16 CFR Part
1204). No comments were received in response to that notice.
The Safety Standard for Omnidirectional Citizens Band Base Station
Antennas establishes performance requirements for omnidirectional
citizens band base station antennas to reduce unreasonable risks of
death and injury which may result if an antenna contacts overhead power
lines while being erected or removed from its site. Certification
regulations implementing the standard require manufacturers, importers,
and private labelers of antennas subject to
[[Page 48064]]
the standard to test antennas for compliance with the standard, and to
maintain records of that testing.
The records of testing and other information required by the
certification regulations allow the Commission to determine that
antennas subject to the standard comply with its requirements. This
information would also enable the Commission to obtain corrective
actions if omnidirectional citizens band base station antennas failed
to comply with the standard in a manner which creates a substantial
risk of injury to the public.
